“Where is he? He always does this. He knows he has work…” Fionna jumped up into the hammock, turned on the reading light, and opened her Anatomy of an Ape text book.
This was her fifth year in New York. She came to the great metropolis after spending eight years in Florida. Fionna went through the public school system, although there was no lack of money. Francesco was still making a good living as captain of the “Ecstasy” a ship with the Carnivale Cruise lines.
She continued to study at the University of Florida and she graduated with a degree in Veterinary Medicine. After graduation and after peeling herself away from her over opinionated and over protective mom, she came north to New York.
Since her arrival, in this the greatest city in the world, she has been working at the animal emergency room on the East River Drive and 34th street. She loves her work there. Helping life, keeping these poor animals alive and healthy. She always attributed her love for animals as a result of her growing up in such a beautiful place.

Why is it that we are so engaged in hot summer hookups in July’ I’ll fill you in; it is the combination of the rising mercury combined with our body chemistry that sets off this annual libidinous phenomenon. In the summer months we shed our heavy winter coats, exposing more of our skin to the sun and to others. We soak up the rays and our bodies give off a scent. Now, even though we use deodorants, antiperspirants, and perfumes and colognes, we all have our own distinct “aroma.”
It is this bouquet that sends signals to receptors in the proboscises of other people which make them either attracted or repelled to or from us, respectively. Undoubtedly, pheromones play a significant part in our mating rituals. One’s scent is what can be the element that makes a simple smile on the street turn into an impromptu romantic interlude. And yes, we have an exponentially greater chance of picking up someone’s scent in the hedonistic heat of a July day than we do in, let’s say, midwinter.
Of course, June is a warm month and August and September are both significantly hotter than July, but it seems that in July the temperature is spot on for our bodies to emit just the right amount of sweet sweat to attract others. The hotter months tend to make us a tad overly pungent and the cooler are just that, a bit too cool for the steamy stuff to chemically click.
With that in mind, keep yourself hydrated and wear your UV protection but keep the skin bared and your nose clear because chances are there may be an unsettling scent that will waft in your direction this month and you will be moved to be amorous. Be open to all aspects of summer luvin’ that come in July, for there is no greater tingle than one that is unexpected.
